Yes, I know of that brochure. They DID airbrushed a four door sedan to look like a hardtop. On latter brochures a real 4 door hardtop Galaxie 500 LTD was pictured. 

The resin body is still inaccurate on many places for being a Custom. Not only on the rear door window design, it also has a Galaxie 500 LTD and XL trim on the lower part of the quarter panel. If you really wanted that trim piece it could be easily installed at the dealer, but didn't come from the factory on the car. Also the four point stylized star on the rear quarter was a LTD and XL only piece. 

When the kits manufacturers make mistakes we mention them. The same has to be done with resin cast parts.

I'm on the process of building a four door body from the AMT '66 body to represent my '74 Galaxie:

If you want pictures of my 65 ltd 4 door hardtop I can take some for you, just let me know what angle you want, btw what is the best roof section to use for this conversion?
